READING
6 Read this letter from a person working in an aid organisation. Match the paragraphs 1-5 with their main points, A-E.
Travelling and working away from home
1 |
Hi there, I'm Jennie I'm from Australia but at the moment I'm working as a volunteer for an aid organisation in Algeria. |
2 |
I decided to work for an aid organisation because I love travelling and finding out about other cultures and people. That is why I came to teach in Algeria. Algeria is a fascinating country. I'd like to share some of my experiences with you. |
3 |
Before I came to Algeria, I tried to prepare myself for teaching here. But I was so surprised on my first morning in the classroom to see so many children who were all keen to learn English. I had to try very hard to keep them calm and quiet. |
4 |
A few months later I went to visit other schools in Algeria, and everywhere I went I found the same thing - children so keen to learn, and learning fast. I watched them and their teachers and came away with lots of ideas. When I got back to my regular class, I tried using some of these ideas. My teaching became easier. I learnt a lot from watching others. |
5 |
I'm going back to Australia soon. I'm going to work at my old school there again. I'm hoping to put my students in touch with the ones I met in Algeria. I hope they will teach and learn from one another, and become friends. I can't wait to see what happens. Yours, Jennie |
